2013 World Football Awards: Best and Worst of the Beautiful Game

This week's Bleacher Report Google+ Hangout is an end-of-year special. Stan Collymore and Graham Ruthven will join me to reflect on the best and worst of the beautiful game in 2013.

A former Liverpool, Aston Villa and England striker, Collymore is a columnist for B/R UK and a weekly guest on our Hangouts. See his writer profile here. Take a look at his Premier League team of 2013 here.

Ruthven can be found on Twitter @grahamruthven. A regular contributor to The New York Times and many others, his global insight is ideal for the subject matter.

Here are the main categories we'll be looking at:

Team of the year

Player of the year

Most memorable match

Biggest letdown

Biggest idiot

Hopes for 2014

The Hangout will air live at 1 p.m. UK time on Thursday. The playback feature will be available for eternity afterward.
